Condition Report

The watch is offered in Grade B condition, with visible signs of wear consistent with its age and previous use. Scratches, scuffs and surface marks are present on the case, case back, bracelet and clasp. The acrylic crystal may also show light scratches.

The grey fumé dial retains its attractive gradient effect and is complemented by applied indexes, silver-tone hands and a contrasting blue central seconds hand.

The automatic movement is functioning at the time of listing. No recent service history is available, and future accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The water resistance has not been tested; therefore, contact with water is not recommended.

Story & Heritage

Tressa belonged to the generation of independent Swiss watchmakers that embraced the expressive design trends of the 1970s. During this period, traditional round cases gave way to stronger geometric forms, integrated bracelets and richly coloured dials.

This model captures that spirit through its broad cushion case and smoky fumé dial, which gradually darkens toward the edges. The vivid blue seconds hand introduces a distinctive flash of colour, while the original stainless-steel bracelet completes its authentic period appearance.

With its substantial proportions and Swiss automatic movement, this Tressa is an appealing vintage watch for collectors who appreciate the bold and experimental character of 1970s design.
